Soil and plant responses to pyrogenic organic matter: carbon stability and symbiotic patterns. Soil amendment with pyrogenic organic matter (PyOM) can sequester carbon, increase mutualistic root symbioses with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and nitrogen-fixing rhizobia, and hence improve crop yie... ...

Biochar: pyrogenic carbon for agricultural use: a critical review. Biochar (carbonized biomass for agricultural use) has been used worldwide as soil amendment and is a technology of particular interest for Brazil, since its ?inspiration? is from the historical Terra... ...

Effects of pyrogenic carbon feedstock and pyrolysis temperature on the oxidation kinetic and benzene polycarboxilic acids formation. Pyrogenic carbon (PyC) has a high potential to soil carbon sequestration. Among the methods used to quantify PyC, the method of benzene polycarboxilic acids (BPCA) is well-established. The oxidation s... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2014
Pyrogenic carbon application and native soil organic matter decomposition in a sandy soil matrix. Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2013
Emission of CO2 from biochar-amended soils and implications for soil organic carbon. Soil amendment with pyrogenic organic matter (PyOM), also named biochar, is claimed to sequester carbon (C). However, possible interactions between PyOM and native soil organic carbon (SOC) may accele... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2015
Extraction and characterisation of humin fraction from Amazonian anthropogenic dark earth soils ("Terra Preta de Indios"). Humin, the humic fraction that is insoluble in water at all pH values, typically comprises more than 50% of soil organic matter (1). Because of the difficulties in isolation, humin compositions and pr... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2008
Biochar of sawdust origin in passion fruit seedling production. Author(s): REZENDE, F. A. de; MAIA, C. M. B. de F. Great part of solid waste are deposited inappropriately near cities or in rural areas, contributing to negative environmental impacts. There are numerous forms of waste processing, one of them is pyro... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2017
Carbon distribution in humic substance fractions extracted from soils treated with charcoal (biochar). Author(s): MADARI, B. E.; SILVA, M. A. S.; NOVOTNY, E. H.; ALCANTARA, F. A. de; CARVALHO, M. T. M. Biochar incorporation into the soil is a proposed C sequestration strategy. How newly applied biochar affects C accumulation in the soil is therefore a relevant question. This study presents part of t... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2013
Advances in biochar research in Brazil. Author(s): MAIA, C. M. B. F.; MADARI, B. E.; NOVOTNY, E. H. To mitigate global warming, major changes in the global carbon balance are expected as the world's larger economics migrate to energy matrices that emit less greenhouse gases (GHG). Alternatives of ca... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2011
Spectroscopic investigation on the effects of biochar and soluble phosphorus on grass clipping vermicomposting. Seeking to evaluate the hypothesis that biochar optimises the composting and vermicomposting processes as well as their product quality, we carried out field and greenhouse experiments. Four grass cli... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2022
